Chapter [-]: Changing Tribulation

Sure enough, Rong Zixuan arranged her program to be the finale at the busiest time of the banquet. Before that, Mu Lan still sat in her seat to watch the program with Meng Yiqing and her concubines and princesses.It wasn't until halfway through the banquet that the master of ceremonies came to inform her to go change clothes and get ready.

After all, it's not in the palace, the temporary changing place is arranged in the side hall outside the banquet hall.When Mu Lan entered, Gu Xianxian was also inside, and was being served by a maid to change into a colorful dance dress.This dress is elegant and elegant, and the color is also good. It complements her makeup today, but it is different from her past elegance, and it is a little more bright.

"Empress Defei." Seeing her coming in, Gu Xianxian hurriedly bowed her body and saluted, "Xianxian first thank you for your success."

"You and I are just doing our best to celebrate the queen mother's birthday, so there is no need to thank you." Mu Lan responded lightly, not wanting to talk to her too much, so she went inside and let the maid change her clothes.When she came out, she saw Gu Xianxian twirling and doing the final practice. [

It has to be said that this person who has practiced dancing since he was a child has a different figure, and his gestures are graceful and feminine.Perhaps it was because of this that he had such self-confidence, let Wu give Dong Ling a desperate look.

Gu Xianxian was working hard when she stepped on the hem of her skirt, causing her to lose her balance.

"Ah..." Gu Xianxian exclaimed, and accidentally fell towards Mu Lan.Fortunately, she was flexible, and when she saw that she was about to jump on Mu Lan, she abruptly turned to the side and fell dangerously at Mu Lan's feet.

Mu Lan had practiced martial arts, so she had a quick reaction, and when Gu Xianxian threw herself over, she subconsciously avoided it.But seeing the measures Gu Xianxian took to avoid her, she was very surprised.

She is not a kind-hearted person, but she is not a cold-hearted person either.Seeing that she fell heavily, Mu Lan stretched out her hand to her and said, "Are you alright?"

Gu Xianxian shook her head and wanted to get up with her support. However, she didn't know if she sprained her ankle. She almost fell when she tried to stand still several times. Fortunately, Mu Lan protected her.

"I'm sorry, Empress Defei, I didn't mean it." After finally regaining control of her body, Gu Xianxian hurriedly apologized to her, with tears in her eyes, both panic and guilt.

Mu Lan didn't expect her to cry so much, she waved her hand and said, "Forget it, I'm fine, but with you like this, can you still perform?"

Gu Xianxian rubbed her ankle, tried to move it again, nodded and said, "It's not hurt, it should be fine."

Seeing that she was fine, Mu Lan said, "That's good, it's about to start, so hurry up and tidy up."

Gu Xianxian hummed, then suddenly brushed her body again, and said: "Ms. De Concubine is generous and tolerant, and there will be blessings in the future."

Looking at the guilt on her face, it doesn't look like she is fake, but it makes people feel a little unbearable.Mu Lan had no choice but to smile at her, and said: "I know that you are a mistake, so don't take it to heart, just concentrate on performing, and don't make such a mistake in the hall later."

"Yes." Gu Xianxian answered with her head bowed, a few tears quietly falling between her white fingers.

The performance went very smoothly. With the experience of the previous two times, Mu Lan became more and more comfortable playing the piano.I wanted to pick a cheerful modern song, but in order to match Gu Xianxian's dance steps, I finally chose a light and classical song.The moving piano sound coupled with the beauty's dancing posture won a lot of applause.

Meng Yiqing rewarded Gu Xianxian with a set of gold ornaments on her head, and Dong Lingjue followed suit with a few words of praise, and the topic of the two shifted to Mu Lan.

"Girl Ning, I am very satisfied with your birthday gift. Tell me, what kind of reward do you want?" Meng Yiqing was so happy that she stopped calling her Concubine De, and gave her an affectionate title directly.

Dong Lingjue also smiled at her when he heard the words: "The whole house is full of people celebrating birthdays, and the Queen Mother can ask for rewards. You are the first one, so hurry up and thank the Queen Mother."

If there is no one else here, Mu Lan will take this opportunity to make a big fortune. Anyway, Yiqing is also generous to others.But right now, he still has to go on acting, and said with a smile, "Jin Ning thanked the Queen Mother for her kindness. As for rewards, as long as the Queen Mother is present in court every year, Jin Ning will be satisfied."

Meng Yiqing pursed her lips, smiled at her meaningfully, and said: "You can talk, that's all right, I'll do it for you, Aijia will go back and think about it, and reward you with something new." [

"Thank you, Queen Mother." Mu Lan thanked her before returning to her seat.On the other side, after Gu Xianxian received the reward, she went to the queen's side to have a banquet.Dong Lingjue didn't even look at her again, and Gu Xianxian was uncharacteristically, with her head down, as if she was depressed.

Rong Zixuan still had a gentle and virtuous demeanor. Even Mulan was rewarded by the Queen Mother, but she didn't show much emotion. She even joked with Concubine Shu and Zhuo Wanyun from time to time, and she seemed to be in a good mood .

It seems that maybe she worried too much, ever since Xifeng reminded her, she has been a little bit like an underdog.Thinking of this, Mu Lan breathed a sigh of relief, and let go of her heart, enjoying the rare excitement in the palace.

After the banquet, another troupe came on stage to sing, and Mu Lan couldn't understand the babbling singing, so she got tired after a while.

Just as she was dozing off in the chair, an almond came over and hit her forehead.Mu Lan only felt a pain in her forehead, she woke up with a start, and looked up, but she was looking at Shang Dong Lingjue's eyes that seemed to be smiling but not smiling.

Mu Lan stroked her forehead and glanced around.Everyone was watching the play with relish, only Rong Zixuan was looking at her coldly, the corners of her lips raised contemptuously, as if she was reprimanding her for her disrespect.

Mu Lan straightened her body, gave Dong Lingjue a grateful look, and regained her spirits.Anyway, this is the Empress Dowager's birthday, and it would not be a decent thing to be named by Rong Zixuan in public.

Dong Lingjue glanced at her, and suddenly turned sideways to whisper to Meng Yiqing who was beside her.I don't know what to say, Meng Yiqing suddenly smiled, looked at her, and said: "Concubine De, you are a healthy person, you should not sit for a long time. The Ai family sees that you are also tired, go down earlier and rest. "

Mu Lan didn't expect that he was asking for leave for her, and a burst of warmth welled up in her heart.She really felt a little uncomfortable sitting, so she didn't ask anymore, and said: "Thank you for your empress dowager's understanding, then Jin Ning will go back first."

Saying that, he said goodbye to Dong Lingjue and Rong Zixuan, and left the banquet with Qingmei Qingxue.

The palace was not far away, and the scenery in the garden was very good, so Mu Lan didn't ask to prepare a soft sedan chair, and the three of them walked back for a walk.Qingmei Qingxue joked all the way, praising Dong Lingjue's thoughtfulness and grace, Mu Lan didn't say anything, but thinking of the meticulousness just now, she felt very sweet in her heart.

Seeing that it was about to arrive, Mu Lan suddenly felt that the more she walked, the more tired she became, and there was a dull pain in her lower abdomen.

Feeling her footsteps slowing down, Qingmei couldn't help asking: "Master, are you tired? We'll be there in a while."

"You must have sat in that hall for too long today. Let me support you." Qingxue handed the lantern to Qingmei to hold it together, and stretched out her hand to help Mulan. Surprised, "Master, why are your hands so cold all of a sudden?"

Hearing her surprised tone, Mu Lan felt even more uneasy, she grabbed Qingxue tightly and said, "Qingxue, hurry up and send the imperial physician over, I feel something is wrong."

Qingmei Qingxue's expression changed instantly, this scene was vaguely familiar, Qingxue hurriedly nodded in response, and ran away.Qingmei supported Mulan, calling for someone to come.A few court ladies and eunuchs on duty ran over upon hearing the sound, and hurriedly escorted Mu Lan back to another courtyard.

"Master, how do you feel? What's wrong?" Qingmei covered her with a thick quilt, and asked someone to add a lot of charcoal to the stove to make the room warmer.

Although she was lying down, Mu Lan felt that the dull pain in her abdomen was getting worse and worse. In just a moment, her forehead was covered with sweat.Xi Feng's warning came to her mind again, and a strong sense of foreboding enveloped her heart.

"Qingmei, my stomach hurts so much, go and see if the imperial doctor is here..." Mu Lan said with pain, praying that nothing will happen to her, she can accept any difficulty, but it must not be her child What a surprise.

Hearing that she had a stomachache, everyone in the room turned pale with horror.

Qingmei was also anxious why Qingxue hadn't invited the imperial doctor over yet, and she didn't dare to leave, so she had to send other people to urge her, and then sent someone to inform Dong Lingjue, after Zhang Luo finished, she brought hot water for her Wiping his forehead and palms, he comforted him: "Master, don't be nervous, maybe it's just a bad stomach, and nothing will happen. The imperial doctor will come soon."

Mu Lan also wanted to believe this, but this strange pain caused her to fall into unprecedented fear and anxiety. She didn't know if it was an illusion caused by too much tension, and there seemed to be sticky liquid flowing out of her body. [

"Qingmei..." Mu Lan grasped Qingmei next to her, and wanted to tell her something, when a stabbing pain suddenly hit her lower abdomen, Mu Lan let out a painful cry, and passed out immediately.

"Master..." Qingmei's voice changed in fright, seeing that her eyes were closed tightly and she didn't move, she called her several times in a panic, but there was no response.

"Master, it's fine, I'll go to the imperial physician and the emperor right away." Qing Mei didn't know whether she was comforting her or herself, she tucked the quilt for her, and went straight to the door.

"Master, the imperial physician is here." As soon as he reached the door, he heard Qingxue running and panting dragging an imperial physician rushing over.

"The imperial doctor is here..." Qing Mei finally calmed down a bit, and hurriedly urged: "Hurry up, master has passed out!"

The imperial physician was so old that he was already running out of breath. Hearing this, his heart was in suspense, and he didn't care to take a breath, so he hurried into the room to feel Mulan's pulse.For a moment, the entire courtyard was in chaos.
